EnvSwapper

env_swapper is a lightweight Rust library to temporarily set environment variables, automatically restoring the previous state when out of scope.

Installation

Add env_swapper to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
env_swapper = "0.1.0"

Usage

use env_swapper::EnvSwapper;
use std::env;

fn main() {
    let key = "EXAMPLE_VAR";
    
    {
        let _swapper = EnvSwapper::new(&[(key, "temporary_value")]);
        println!("Inside scope: {:?}", env::var(key)); // Outputs "temporary_value"
    }

    println!("Outside scope: {:?}", env::var(key)); // Restored to original
}

Features

Temporarily sets and restores environment variables automatically on scope exit. Ideal for testing, sandboxed configurations, and controlled environment changes.
